During her chat with VF, Moss -- who is credited with ushering in the controversial "heroin chic" aesthetic -- defends her famously tiny frame.

"I had never even taken heroin -- it was nothing to do with me at all," she explains. "I was thin, but that's because I was doing shows, working really hard. At that time, I was staying at a B and B in Milan. You'd get home from work and there was no food. You'd get to work in the morning, there was no food. Nobody took you out to lunch when I started. [Former model turned French First Lady] Carla Bruni took me out for lunch once. She was really nice. Otherwise, you don't get fed. But I was never anorexic. They knew it wasn't true -- otherwise I wouldn't be able to work."

Now a 38-year-old fashion icon -- and a mom to Lila, 10 -- Moss also discusses how she's put her party girl past behind her, and is set on enjoying a quiet life with husband Jamie Hince, whom she wed in July 2011.
